Body and Soul for 2 lap steels (Jazz standard)

After playing around with this great standard for a few days, I recorded this version last night. Nothing fancy, just trying to play pretty and melodic. This is also the first recording I've done without finger picks, which I've been moving towards lately in playing Jazz.

The steel is a Clinesmith lap steel and the backing track is from Aebersold (I muted the piano).

Beautiful take on one of my favorite standard ballads.

Are you in C6?

Thanks for listening, guys.

Yes, the tuning is C6/A7, which is C6 with the lower C tuned up to C#.
